Ahmed sparks England win over New Zealand at T20 World Cup

Rehan Ahmed hit a stunning six off the second ball he faced to inspire England to a four-wicket win over New Zealand in the T20 World Cup Super Eights.

Rehan Ahmed remained unbeaten on seven balls while partner Will Jacks scored 32* off 18 as England chased down 159 with three balls to spare. Captain Harry Brook confirmed the 21-year-old's spot is under consideration for the semifinals in Mumbai, praising his impact against the used, slow pitch.
